Amber was great with Gus! She walked him longer than I asked & brought him back to me tired and happy. I will definitely use her again ?

Rebecca was wonderful. She was prompt, worked with my dog on not marking every mailbox in our neighborhood and always gave him a great work out during the walks. She was prompt, communicative, trustworthy and I will be using her services for my dog in the future!

About: I've always pet sat for my friends and family. I started when I was in high school. I sincerely just love animals and it makes me happy to help others being around pets. I just do Doordashing in my free time. So I can work the two apps around each other! I started Rover last year but stopped to try other things instead and take care of my health more. I'm currently down 110lbs and ready to take care of your beautiful animals! I have my two cats right now. I'm also the one my friends and family always ask to take care of their pets when on vacation. I'm the type of person to stop and move the turtle out of the road or help a lost dog find it's way back home.

About: I've had my own cats for almost 6 years, I've volunteered at the Belleville Area Humane Society for around 4 months, and I do occasional dogsitting and housesitting for family friends when needed. I have a summer job that starts on May 26th, and I have training from 9-4 on May 17th and 23rd. I'm unsure of which days I'll be working yet, so I will let you know when I can what my schedule will be. I will be completely free on weekends aside from outside events. I appreciate detailed instructions on any specifics needed when caring for your pets, such as medications, feeding times, bathroom breaks, regular walks, or any other schedule they need.

About: I’ve been caring for dogs and cats for 2 years. As a military member, I’ve often helped fellow military friends and counterparts care for their pets while they were away or working long hours. I currently have two rescue dogs. One terrier mix and a chihuahua, and they are my all. I have also had plenty of pets my whole life. My home was always full of pets, especially beagles. I had 5 beagles growing up and a Lab mix, it was always fun spending time with them and growing up around them <3 Spending time with animals genuinely makes me happy, and I love creating a safe, caring, and fun environment for them. I’m also fully bilingual and fluent in both English and Spanish. I am currently in the military, so my schedule may vary each week. However, I usually have more than 12 days off per month, giving me plenty of flexibility and time to provide dependable and caring pet services. I am also available to provide services inside SCOTT AFB. For dog walking and drop-in visits, I focus on making pets feel safe, comfortable, and cared for while maintaining their normal routine as much as possible. During walks, I make sure dogs get exercise, potty breaks, fresh water if needed, and plenty of attention and care. For drop-in visits, I can feed pets, refresh water bowls, provide potty breaks, playtime, companionship, and make sure everything is clean and secure before leaving. I always pay close attention to each pet’s personality, energy level, and any special instructions provided by the owner. I also enjoy sending photo updates so owners can feel at ease while they are away.

About: I’ve been surrounded by animals my entire life, growing up with dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and many other furry and feathered companions. I firmly believe that a house isn’t truly a home without a four-legged friend. Over the years, I’ve provided pet care for family and friends, caring for up to five dogs at a time of varying breeds, sizes, ages, and temperaments. I also have experience caring for cats, including both indoor and outdoor pets. My background is in nursing, which has given me valuable experience with responsibility, attention to detail, and caring for animals with special medical needs. However, my love for animals has always been just as strong as my passion for helping people. My family and I recently relocated from St. Louis, Missouri, to St. Jacob, Illinois. My husband and daughter share my love for animals, and our home is currently filled with the company of our three beloved cats. Earlier this year, we said goodbye to our sweet dog, Roxy, after 17 wonderful years together. Her absence has left a noticeable void in our home, and we miss the sound of her sassy little feet following us around. While we take our time deciding when we’re ready to welcome another dog into our family, I’ve decided to return to pet sitting and expand my services. Caring for animals brings me joy, and I would be honored to provide loving, dependable care for your pets while you’re away. Whether it’s daily walks, drop-in visits, medication administration, or vacation care, you can rest assured your pets will be treated like family. I'm currently a stay at home mom and can offer plenty of flexibility for your pet's care needs whether that is drop in visits, walks, or boarding. We live on a 2+ acre lot with lots of room to run/walk around the property. We do not currently have a fenced in yard so dogs would need to be on a leash to ensure their safety while staying with us. We have lots of walking paths in our area that we can offer for exercise. If your dog likes a quiet place to rest, we have used our laundry room as a quiet area for pets.

About: Please use my promo code… https://www.rover.com/sit/rosal48641 I have a Great Pyrenees and am used to large dogs and no issue handling smaller pets as well. I periodically watch pets for friends and family. Distance and time are very flexible most days. Let me know if you need assistance and I can find a way to make it work. Periodic walks are necessary for pets of all sizes and for humans as well. :) Favorite part of my day with my Pyrenees is long walks and sunshine.

About: I’ve had many pets throughout my life! I’ve had dogs, cats, a bunny and a hedgehog! I’ve worked for an independent pet sitter before! I’ve taken a couple training classes with my own fur babies so I know a little bit about training. I’ve helped nurse kittens as well! I work M-F 8am-5/6pm & have weekends off. I do sometimes change my work schedule around for pet visits so I charge a cancellation fee for cancellations that are 2 days before. My own pets are kenneled throughout the day when no one is home. They go outside regularly about every 2 hours when someone is home. I feed them early morning & when I get home from work. We work through our training exercises daily! I take care of my clients pets however they have asked me to and treat them as if they are my own fur babies! Your pets will know nothing but love & fun when I’m with them!

About: I've had a variety of pets over the years. I love being around animals and I look forward to helping you with your fur babies! I enjoy taking care of animals. My part time job is flexible so I'll have a decent availability to do this service. I'm looking for regular customers if possible. My rabbit has his own area where he isn't around anything that can harm him. I also let him outside on a leash to get fresh air. He gets a variety of different foods and I make sure I play with him so he gets another form of exercise as well as emotional stimulation. Because bunnies need a lot of attention!

About: I’ve cared for dogs my whole life. You can rest assured your pups, big and small, will get all the love and attention while you’re away. I currently work full-time, Monday through Friday, but have three pups of my own at home and can board additional pups overnight during the week and can do daytime walks on weekends. I have a fenced in yard and keep your pets separated from my household pets unless they are long-time visitors and we know everyone gets along well.

About: I've grown up with dogs my whole life! Small, big, energetic, and calm, I love them all. Right now I live with 2 extremely spoiled Labs, but I grew up with a Maltese and a Chihuahua. I worked in the grooming salon at Petsmart for a while as a dogbather and know how to bathe, brush, and cut nails. I loved working there and being around animals, but ended up leaving due to moving out of state. I've also volunteered at Partners for Pets out in Troy, IL and made many furry friends there as well. I have a very flexible schedule as I am a stay at home mom. Pet care fits easily into my daily routine and I'm used to regular walks, feeding schedules, playtime, and maintaining a calm, comfortable environment for pets. I do photography so I'm guaranteed to get some amazing photos of your pet to cherish! I love throwing the ball/toy, if thats not really your dogs speed, tug of war and cuddles is also fun! I do enjoy going on walks, but with the colder weather coming thats not always an option, in that case, toys that make your dog use their brain and sniff around are great alternatives!

About: I’ve had four dogs, two bunnies, and experience caring for cats, so I’m comfortable with all kinds of personalities. I’ve also trained two puppies, which taught me patience and consistency (and how to handle a little chaos). I’m big on communication, so you’ll always get updates and know how your pet is doing. I’m especially great with high-energy dogs since I genuinely enjoy long walks, playtime, and keeping them active. At the end of the day, I treat every pet like my own and make sure they feel comfortable while you’re away. I work from home in insurance, so I have a flexible schedule and can easily build my day around pet care. I’m able to take my time with walks and visits, and I’m around during the day to keep you updated. For drop-ins and walks, I stick closely to your pet’s routine so everything feels normal for them. I follow instructions carefully, keep walks safe, and pay attention to how they’re doing. I’m also respectful of your home and always leave things how I found them. I’ll send a quick update after each visit so you know how it went.

About: I have been surrounded with dogs since I was born! My family had a golden retriever when I was younger, and we currently have an 11-year old corgi mix, an 8-year old labradoodle, and a 5-year old golden retriever. Finnley, the five year old golden, is my personal dog who I trained, walked, cleaned up after, and took care of. In addition, I lived with a 3-year old boxer last year who I helped take care of and spent a lot of time with. Besides my personal pet experience, I volunteered at the Partners for Pets shelters multiple times where I took care of dogs and cats. I also frequently take advantage of the Adopt a Dog for a Day option at the Oxford Animal Rescue Center whenever I feel overwhelmed or have a free day. Besides volunteering, I had a personal business at 15/16 where I watched both kids and animals for families in my neighborhood. I took care of multiple breeds and ages of dogs, cats, hamsters, and fish. My availability is completely open until June 1st, when I will start a part time job at WashU! With that said, I am still available any weekday after 4, and all day Saturday and Sunday!! At my house, all of my dogs are trained to stay in the yard. All three get treats when they come in (because they are such good boys) and are fed twice daily. My older dog has gum issues that makes his teeth painful to use, so I put his food in water and let it soften so he is able to eat it pain-free. For walks, the two big dogs go on a joint leash and the smaller dog goes on a leash by himself. Distance wise, I take into account if the ground is hot on their paws and the temperature outside to determine how long the walk will be. We love to go to dog parks and play, as well as cuddle and lay out in the sun together.

FAQs for Dog Walking - Summerfield

Frequently asked questions about Rover

As of July 2026, there are 1,703 sitters on Rover offering Dog Walking across Summerfield. Enter your ZIP code to see which available sitters are closest to your home.

Whether you want a solo or group walk depends on your dog's personality. Solo walks can be beneficial for dog parents with reactive dogs, puppies, or dogs who are anxious around unfamiliar animals. Many dog walkers on Rover offer private, one-on-one walking services.

Group walks are a good fit for social dogs who enjoy structured walks. If your dog prefers the energy of a group stroll, ask your dog walker about group walks in your Summerfield. Since all dog walkers are local, they may have a neighborhood dog who is a good walking companion to yours.

For dog walking services, you can request a report card update with specifics about your dog’s walk. Report cards require photos and can include a map of the walking route , total walk time, poop and pee breaks, and distance traveled, so you know exactly where your dog has been walking in Summerfield.

Got specific details you'd like the dog walker to include? Message them in the app before your dog’s walk begins.

The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book. It includes 24/7 customer support, sitter access to advice from qualified veterinary professionals for diagnostic issues, and a reimbursement program for eligible veterinary care in the rare event something goes wrong.

All bookings are backed by the Rover Guarantee , which provides up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care reimbursement.

Every walker on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit Rover's Trust & Safety page .

Yes, you can find walkers who have experience with handling special pet needs in Summerfield. On Rover:

  • 97% of walkers can help with special care needs
  • 97% can help with giving oral medications or injections
  • 98% can help with daily exercise

You can also find pet sitters on Rover who accept only one pet at a time, which is ideal for anxious puppies, kittens, or senior pets who move at a gentler pace. Some sitters will also list availability for 24/7 care, also known as constant care, in their profiles.

Use the search filters to narrow down sitters whose specific experience or environment meets your pet's needs. When reaching out to your sitter, outline your pet's care routine and use the Meet & Greet to walk your sitter through your expectations.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a walker. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your walker or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your walker questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and walkers on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.

Sitters on Rover set their own cancellation policy, which you can find on their profile under their calendar availability.

Cancelling before a booking begins and before the sitter's cutoff time qualifies you for a full refund. Same-day cancellations for walks, day care, and drop-ins follow the full refund policy. Otherwise, for dog boarding and house sitting, you will receive a 50% refund for the first seven days of the booking and a 100% refund for the remaining days when you cancel the same day a booking should begin.

If your sitter needs to cancel within seven days of the booking's start date, then our reservation protection will kick in. This means our support team works with you to find a replacement walker.
